The exterior is very impressive. It's hard to find any model that has such a strong looks. Anyway, it would be better if it has the 2WD mode for normal road drive to save gas.

I completely disagree with Jon M. Best 4Runner ever, and that is saying a lot.

This new exterior design leaves a lot to be desired. I think it is probably the ugliest vehicle I have ever seen. The bulging taillights are ridiculous. Toyota should not be taking their design clues from the FJ Cruiser, a vehicle that was so unsuccessful. The functionality is also a giant leap backwards. For the 4th generation, all models got the Torsen center differential. Now Torsen is only offered on the Limited version. And all 5th generation models come with that silly "party mode" button. Why would anyone spend upwards of $40K to get a leather interior only to have a button that says "party mode"? Toyota really blew it on the marketing research this time. The party mode feature, which transfers sound to the back speakers, could have been part of the sound system. We don't need a separate button!! I also don't like the placement of the 4WD nob on the center console of the limited version. In the 4th generation, this nob was on the dashboard. Why move it to the center console? I would rather have any extra cup holder or a place to put my cell phone. Again, what is Toyota thinking??
